I love seeing these old sewing machines. I bought an old treadle powered Singer for my wife a few years ago, that she loves to use on occasion. I had to replace a few parts, but got it working again.

I've got my mother's old Singer electric inside a convertible table at the end of the hall being used as a printer stand.

The engineering that went into designing and making those older machines still amazes me today.
